PROTECT YOURSELF

HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) continue to be a major problem across the United States, including in Rhode Island. The goal of this site is to provide information about HIV and other STDs and suggest ways people may protect themselves. Many people who have HIV or other STDs don’t know it and might not have any symptoms. If found early and treated, people can live long, healthy lives with HIV. Many other STDs can be cured with antibiotics. If untreated, HIV and other STDs can cause major health problems.

This site is sponsored by The Rhode Island STD Clinic at The Miriam Hospital. We offer confidential HIV and STD testing on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday from 12:30-3:30pm on a walk-in basis at 1125 North Main Street in Providence, Rhode Island.

Our goal is to keep you safe and healthy. Please contact us at one of our sites for any questions or concerns. All testing is anonymous and confidential.
